Description

New traditional Afghan Soumak rug - the coloured wools, which form the pattern, lie at slight angles from the horizontal, and herringbone effects are often created by changing the angle of alternate rows. Loose ends of the pattern wools hang free at the back of the rug, providing a padding. This example has dramatic double medallions bursting out in golds and blues for stunning effect.
